How to encourage and preserve mobility in children and curiosity

Curiosity manifested in children literally birth - it allows them to grow, learn about the world. Children need to literally everything, because they are quickly faced with parental prohibitions. Moms and dads trying to protect the baby from danger, but as a result of blunt his desire for knowledge.

What do psychologists advised to encourage children's curiosity, while maintaining the health and integrity of the house?

Answer questions

When a child begins to speak - parents very quickly cease to rejoice this fact. Because it begins a series of very different issues. Why the sky is blue? And what's in there? And there? And why? Children do not get tired of asking questions, but the parents get tired to answer them. But if the child does not receive answers to their questions, then eventually just stops them to ask. Try to respond to the baby so that the information is accessible and understandable for its age. But the phrase "grow up - you will understand" better to exclude from your vocabulary, it is not the answer.

Allow me to make a mess

Of course, children need to inculcate the habit of clean up, clean up toys, help around the house, keep your home and yourself clean. Still, it is above all the children, they need the freedom of creativity and action to develop harmoniously. Highlight in the house so the angle at which a child can create a mess in its sole discretion and without reproach on your part. Let your child feed himself, even if he was all stained, and the floor will be crumbs. The more he himself would hold a spoon or a fork - so learn how to manage it faster.

Reduce the number of toys

If your child is surrounded by a huge number of toys - it is no longer notice them, appreciate, he does not even remember what he has toys and what not. A large number of toy hampers the child's development. Do not buy your child everything he wants, at the first request. Then, in the game there will be no value for him, and the requirement to repeat a couple of days. Put the toys in boxes in the storeroom, leave, for example, toys 5-7. And let the kid imagines, is how he will develop, to learn to think on their own to occupy themselves.

Young children do not need to buy a very expensive toy, over which the parents will then shake. The child does not understand why mom and dad so worried when the toy is broken, why it can not take with you on the street and a good throw on the asphalt. Over time, he will understand, but so far To compare the number and cost of toys with its own budget. To you it was not painfully hurt and broken toy could be easily thrown out and not regret the money spent.

Brand clothes

As in the case of toys, clothes should be just long enough for mom and dad did not get a heart attack when a child in the new jeans will sit in a puddle or obolet orange juice. The child must learn, dirty, sit on the grass and in the sand, play, run. From all this, of course, clothes can spoil. But if the kid put the expensive branded stuff and get to sit quietly on the bench - neither of which the development of curiosity, however.

When the baby grow up - he did not remember the things that he wore. But it will remain a vivid impression - and this is much more expensive than any clothes.
